Ron Zacapa Solera Centenario 23
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a very well balanced rum from Zacapa and I like is a lot especially considering the price tag. The nose is heavy with spice and sweetness and a touch of orange zest and chocolate. The palate is well rounded with caramel, honey and chocolate topped of with burnt oak and overripe fruits. It has a long, sweet and fruity finish with burnt oak. I'd say this one is better than the bottling from the late 90s and early 00s that won medals. Price to quality is very good. "
Bumbu The Original
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is definitely a good rum for beginners. A bit too sweet for me, but still nicely balanced and an easy sipper. The nose is sweet with vanilla and chocolate. The palate is sweet and fruity with spices and caramel. Kind of a smooth rum. The finish is medium and sweet with vanilla. "
Dos Maderas 5 Years + 5 Years PX
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Retaste this one and it's a very mild well rounded rum that I think can be used for beginners as well. Draws very nice curtains and the empty glass is full of flavours."
Doorly‘s 14 Years
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"The nose on this rum is really nice and it may remind you of some of the Last Ward rums, not as complex but very well balanced. The palate has been perfectly rounded with the perfect proof. So no alcohol dominance but a perfect balance. The orange really shines through and the price to quality is very good. "
Pure Single Jamaican Rum Overproof
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"A really good Jamaican style rum with a real punch. I'd say most may need a few drops of water to make it a lot more digestible. Rest for 15-20 minutes for all flavours to be released. Has more bang for your buck than the 92 proof version."
XO - Triple Cask Blend
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Whisky & Rom Festival 2023 28.10.2023 Another retaste and it still performs pretty well. Price to quality is pretty good. ------------------------- This is a very nice and easy sipping rum from Mount Gay. A typical Bajan rum in nose and palate. The nose is elegant with spice, a bit of orange and charred barrel. The palate starts off with a bit of sweetness, spicy and a bit dry. There is some leather and earthyness to it as well. The finish is medium long, dry and with charred oak and ginger. Again a tiny bit of earthyness on the way out."
Flor de Caña 12 Años
Top review from Leo Tomczak:
"Tangy hazelnut liqueur with a slightly burning finish. Certainly sweetened, colored and flavored to spice up the neutral alcohol. Let's see how it performs in cola. It performs as expected in cola, although there's not much you can do wrong. Therefore a slight upgrade to 30. Nice and unobtrusive with ginger beer."
Rare Casks 12 Years
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This one is better than the regular 12 year old and a very nice surprise. I also like the shape of the bottle. Oak from nose to finish, very fresh with fruits and spices. This is a sipper and not a mixer. Price to quality is very good."
Pure Single Jamaican Rum OWH
Top review from zabo:
"Edit Edit: batch #1 is better than batch #2 Edit: it's also really good as a mixer. Simply a classic. Good price/performance ratio. Works wonderfully to enhance both cocktails and long drinks. For me, it's the best entry-level Hampden and always will be. That's why I had to upgrade it again."
Pure Single Jamaican Rum LROK
Top review from Mirko Frosini 🇮🇪:
"Nice rum, but too similar to hampden the younger and the 50 euro difference is a tease to the consumer. Unfortunately lately Velier is releasing overpriced bottlings where you pay for the brand and less for the quality of the product. Personally I would never buy it taking into account that the overproof can be found at 80 euros and this at 110 and the younger at 59."
Ron Zacapa Edición Negra
Top review from Tim :
"Very similar to the normal Zacapa on the nose (caramel, fruit), except that smoky and toasty flavors are more represented. In the mouth, the smoke and tobacco then comes through very strongly, which is why drinking becomes a spicy experience. Must like, I do not find it all too good. Price much too expensive! Positive to mention are in any case the chocolate and roasted flavors, which are very pleasant in combination with caramel."
15 Years Black River Casks
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This new release is more on the roasted side than the other ones. Lightly fruity with vanilla and wonderful caramel. On the palate there is wonderful roasted wood and I find it nice and round with and oily feel on the tongue. Price to quality is very good in my mind."
Eclipse
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is one of the rums I have probably had the most of over time. A rum developed in 1911 and used in many mixers, which is where i learned about it in my teens way back. Not a super good sipper when you're used to the better Barbadian rums, but a very good choice in mixers. Have many memories both good and bad about this rum 🤣 Many a hangover have been traced back to this particular rum."
XO 175 Anniversary Rum
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is definitely a rum for the fan base of A. H. Riise. Sweet like the usual rums from this company. The nose is sweet and fruity with a tad of smoke and mint. The palate is very sweet and the fruitiness continues from the nose. Creamy charred mint and vanilla. The finish is short to medium long and sweet with orange and oak. A tad too sweet for me but it will probebly have a huge fan base out there. "
Panama 10 Years 2015
Top review from TheRhumhoe:
"Un rhum de Panama qui se détache un peu de la tradition hispanique pure avec quelques arômes un peu plus développés. Le nez est pour le coup doux mais assez varié, les notes florales et de tabac rajoutant un peu de complexité aux notes épicées et caramélisées classiques. Les fruits et le chocolat sont aussi présents. On retrouve en bouche un rhum doux dont la puissance a été atténuée, mais le boisé est plus perceptible que les notes sucrées habituelles. La finale repose sur des notes épicées et vanillées principalement avec un soupçon de fruits. Un rhum qui n’a rien de révolutionnaire mais qui permet de se détacher de la tradition hispanique pour les néophytes."
Millonario 10 Anniversario Reserva
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"It’s much too sweet for my taste and without the complexity and balance that my favorites among the sweet Spanish styled have. The nose is dominated by vanilla and sugar as it is at the palate together with toffee."
Don Papa Sherry Cask
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a rum which was finished in 5 different casks. First finish is done in American oak bourbon casks and then 18 months in 4 different sherry casks; Fino, Pedro Ximinez, Cream and Palo Cortado. A very nice long velvety finish. "
Select Barrel
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"Overall it’s a very kind Agricole, maybe too kind. The nose is fruity, pleasant and floral but weak with aroma of sugarcane. At the palate it’s sweet, fruity and smooth with flavors of vanilla, grass and sugarcane. The finish is short to medium and smooth."
Flor de Caña 7 Años Gran Reserva
Top review from Christian Rudt:
"Flasche hatte mein Bruder im Regal nie probiert also Bitte. Finde die Nase noch am besten hier geht gut Richtung Cognac. Am Gaumen vorwiegend Rum Rosine und etwas dünner Geschmack. Für ne Rum Cola sicher nutzbar."
Hearts Collection - 1993
Top review from SaibotZtar :
"Ui I should have struck with a bottle...Wonderfully fruity and fresh 😯😯I had not expected. Parallels to Guyana REV the balanced heavy fruit, herbs with wood one recognizes here again. ... also mint and even some funk is to smell and taste, great !!! Nice surprise!"
Cuatro Añejo 4
Top review from Master P:
"Leicht, Honig & Vanille, helles Holz und etwas Aprikose in der Nase. Für das Alter und einen Bacardi sehr rund. Im Mund bekommt er seine pfeffrige Kante, bleibt aber schön ausgewogen - aber halt leider recht dünn und charakterlos. Klasse Zeug für Cocktails die sonst weißen Rum brauchen. Genau dafür taugt er, und das gut. Für Cuba Libre ok"
Gran Reserva Diez Aged 10 Years
Top review from Vincent D:
"Goûté après un 4 ans et un 8 ans de la même maison. Celui-ci est indiscutablement le meilleur et le seul à se rapprocher d'un rhum de dégustation. Le boisé est présent tout au long de la dégustation et amène du corps à un rhum doux et sucré. Finale étonnement longue et plus sombre. Pas mal."
VSOP
Top review from Timo Groeger:
"Hier ein 43%iger VSOP von Saint James. In der Nase überwiegend holzig, junges Holz, Eiche und Fass. Am Gaumen dann ebenfalls überwiegend Holz zu schmecken, außerdem ein leicht rauchige Note und Vanille ist auch erkennbar. Ganz okay."
Clément XO
Top review from Martin Ekrt:
"I almost forgot the cast sample before disposing of the bottle. Very fine aroma of fruit, apple, nutmeg. The taste is also more subtle. Again, apple, peanuts and bergamot tea, cognac. Similar finish. A very fine rum for easy sipping."
Batavia Arrack
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"This Indonesian rum is molasses based and distilled in pot stills. During the fermentation they use some red rice in the yeast. After distillation it’s aged in teak barrels before transported to the Netherlands where it’s transferred to oak barrels. The final blend consists of rum aged 8 months, 3, 5 and 8 years. The finish is medium long mostly depending on the alcohol content. I was expecting a lot more flavor of arrack and overall I think that everything is much too weak to catch my interest."
Fine Old Jamaican Rum (Aficionados) EMB
Top review from Jakob:
"It is already apparent on the nose, but on the palate it is finally clear: this is a top representative from the 1995 Clarendon vintage. Fully ripe tropical fruit, mint, wood, even the age is recognizable - in a positive sense. Very complex, yet round, fresh, yet heavy - the EMB profile of the 1995 vintage is definitely one of the best of the EMB profile and also sets benchmarks for Jamaican releases in general. This rum is further proof of this - only the alcohol integration is not quite on a par with its sister releases. Nevertheless, an exquisite release."
Royal Danish Navy Strength Rum
Top review from zabo:
"Received as a bonus sample from Rhum Attitude, thanks for the fact that you get something like this in a plastic sample when you order high-quality rum. Unfortunately, I have no other opinion about the rum than that it is simply extremely sugary water with rum flavor. Typical extremely sweetened spirit drink. That's why I simply can't give it a good rating."
Chairman‘s Reserve Master's Selection (Rum Stylez)
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"wow. despite the high alcohol content and the 19y incredibly horny fruity and harmonious.cherry, tangerine, allspice, vanilla, pineapple and extremely much menthol both on the nose and in the taste in absolute harmony. in addition, some fig, cherry Hubba bubba and cocoa nibs discreetly with maple syrup and wood and black pepper. If he was a tick less "burnt bitter" and woody, I would prefer but still a grenade!🤤❤️🇱🇨🥂"
Dos Maderas 5 Years + 3 Years
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"The base in this rum is a blend of 5yo rum from Guyana (DDL) and Barbados (a little unclear if it comes from WIRD or Foursquare, seen both data) aged in the Caribbean. I’ve taste this and I can clearly recognize Demerara at this stage. This base are after arriving to Jerez, Spain, aged for 3 more Solera years in barrels earlier contained Dos Cortados Sherry which is very dry. I think it’s quite good even if it can’t compete with my favorite Sherry finished rum, but it’s in my opinion much better than the 5+5."
15 Ans
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"Overall a very nice Agricole with great flavors from Saint James, but when I tasted it together with the 12yo, appreciated the 12yo more. It’s full of flavors from the barrel, vanilla and fruits, but I think it tastes a little little bit too much oak to run out the 12yo."
Exceptional Cask Selection XXIII Covenant
Top review from Dr.Django:
"Today there are two Foursquare: 1. covenant: This one tastes like it looks. Lots of dark fruit, somewhat leathery and dry on the palate. The cask influence is very strong, almost too strong. You have to know what you're getting into, but if you like it, you won't be disappointed. The alcohol is well integrated. Delicious Foursquare that I could imagine really enjoying from time to time! 2nd Absolutio: Awesome piece! There are no surprises on the nose or palate in terms of aromas. Mouth-filling, starts silky and pleasantly oily towards the finish. Pleasantly (dry) woody and chocolaty-fruity, great balance. The finish is very long and offers an interplay between dried fruit wrapped in chocolate and wood. I particularly like rums with these long, great finishes and that's what makes this rum for me! Wonderful, now it's "Hunters must hunt" Many thanks to Schnubbii!"
Exceptional Cask Selection XXIV
Top review from Aussierumfan:
"Classic Foursquare! I am thoroughly enjoying this one, which has a lovely mouthfeel which is quite oily/creamy. It has quite a nose on it. On the palate I am getting coconut, vanilla, wood, and a natural sweetness in the background. I prefer this over the 2010 with a superior nose and mouthfeel."
Flensburg Rum Company Trinidad
Top review from Mirco:
"Wonderful nose, which unfortunately does not continue in the mouth. Instead, the typical TDL notes are joined by a strong cannabis note. Really special, something I've never experienced before. Of course, a higher ABV would also be better."
S.B.S Single Origin Rum PM
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Another nice white from S.B.S and the price is pretty good compared to what you get. This one can also be used to sip, on the rocks or in a mixer. I liked it a lot on the rocks as well where other flavours come to life. Not a Habitation Velier, but still pretty decent."
Impérial Blanc
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"Overall a solid low ABV Agricole Blanc that’s really smooth. The nose is fresh, fruity, round and spicy. At the palate it’s smooth, fruity, vegetal and sweet with flavors of peppers, melon, grass and sugarcane. The finish is medium long."
S.B.S Fiji
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Another retaste and it lost a few points, but still a great rum looking at the price tag. Price to quality you get a lot for your money. Fruit and esters combined with a nice spicy and warm palate. I get a light honey note on the nose and palate as well as a hint of mint on the finish. Really nice rum."
Kirk and Sweeney 18 Years
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Another nice tasting finished, this time with rums from the Domenican Republic. This is a sweet rum with a lot of vanilla. A very light rum that's easy to drink. Nothing special about this rum but for the price tag a good option. "
Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum EMB
Top review from DomM:
"Well… obviously I seem to like it a lot more than most people… 🤔😅 Here is my „trick“: pour a glas -> forget about it -> skype with a friend for c. 2h -> remember the Rum -> alcohol feels reasonably integrated 🤷🏻♂️😅 Intense woodnotes in combination with herbs somewhat remind me of (much older) KFMs - again I actually like this one."
Special Cask Series Port
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"30.03.2022 Sampling a bit at home. Notes Medium to dark in colour. Nose Fresh, sweet, light medicinal, light roasted wood, banana, faint honey. Palate Fresh, light, light oily, honey, light medicinal, faint herbs, dried fruit, light herbs. Finish Medium long, light, fruity, light roasted wood, naturally sweet, light herbs, raisin, faint banana."
Dos Maderas Luxus Double Crianza
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a step up from the 5+5 and in a good way. More complexity and a wonderful nose after resting for 15 minutes. There is something tropical about this nice rum. The nose sets off with vanilla and caramel followed by barrel and some orange. The palate is nicely balanced between the proof and spices/oak/barrel. Almond, chocolate and molasses follow and sweet, spice and sherry tops it off. The finish is medium long, warm and some spices."
Royal Danish Navy Naval Cadet
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Another sweet release and I hope that in the future they will reduce the sweetness a bit because it really doesn't become well at all. I do also know that they want to make rum for the masses and beginners....."
Single Estate Series Release 23 | 01 | Bn_Qa
Top review from DomM:
"Lively on the nose underlining its relative young age. Young wood and a jam of (fresh) apples and cinnamon come to my mind. This is rather interesting. Also nice on the palate. Doesn’t hide its young age but is quite enjoyable. Some sweetness with coconuts and vanilla. Basket of continental fruits with some cinnamon again. Side note to the (European) pricing: absolutely not worth EUR 350-400 unfortunately imho."
Special Cask Series Madeira
Top review from Christian Rudt:
"The nose promises here clearly more than the rum can offer on the palate. There I find him on a high level. Something raspberry syrup I perceive. Very broad fruity aroma profile. Great. Not much left of it on the palate, unfortunately. It seems but strongly diluted and little coherent."
Clément Vieux 10 ans
Top review from Tim :
"Very tart and dry notes on the nose, only honey provides some contrast. Typical Agricole, but a bit thin. Full attack in the mouth: sharp, dry, herbal. In the finish, surprisingly, more fruit (apricot) and sweet sugar cane shines through again. Overall, however, the rum does not convince me."
HSE Blanc
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"In summary it’s a rustic, dry, powerful, intense and balanced Agricole Blanc. I’ve also tested it in a Ti Punch and it was great. The nose is fruity, spicy and floral. On the palate it’s a little bit rustic and the aromas from the nose just explodes in the mouth."
Rum Artesanal Trinidad Rum
Top review from Mirko Frosini 🇮🇪:
"Very interesting and complex. Medium-long finish, but not very punchy. I have to be honest, I cannot distinguish this marked black cherry aroma, in fact I found it well balanced. On the finish lychee/cherry. I sensed fleeting notes of marzipan / pastry. If I drink without thinking too much about the bouquet then I perceive its complexity and taste it really well. A very interesting rum that needs attention."
S.B.S Jamaica (PX Cask Matured) NYE/WK
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This one is really good and the ABV has been integrated really well. Once rested you barely get the 58.3%. Fresh and fruity with light cinnamon and lovely wood. Kind of sweet on the palate."
Reunion 2018
Top review from HenryL:
"My first Savanna, I was directly in love. But after I tasted the 2007 Rum Nation, this one falls back a bit. Very very tasty and good Savanna, a little more alcoholic and less complex. But has something of everything, fruit, wood, spices and floral notes. Even with increasing experience still a great part"
Rum Artesanal Jamaica Rum DOK
Top review from zabo:
"Edit: heute nochmal im Kalender von RumX 2024 -6 gehabt. Definitiv nicht als Dok erkannt. Viel zu zahm. Er hätte viel früher aus dem Fass gemusst Nach unten korrigiert Der DOK von Rum Artesanal hat mir schon ein wenig besser zugesagt, als der von Colours of Rum. Aber meines Erachtens ist dieser zu lange im Fass gewesen und mir fehlt ein wenig die Wildheit was ich an dem Mark so schätze. Ist schon gut, aber eher auf der sanften Runden Seite ohne große Ecken und Kanten. Mir ein wenig zu Brav für das Mark. Auch hier persönlich keine Flasche gekauft. Wobei der Preis aber fair ist zur heutigen Zeit."
Opthimus 25 Años Malt Whisky Finish (TOMATIN)
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is a retasting and I'll leave the old comment and change the points 😊 This is a malt finish og their normal 25 and you definitely get the barrel finish. The nose is sharp in the beginning so leave if for 15 minutes ad you get rewarded with fruits, vanilla and caramel. There is a bit of earthiness about it. The palate is mild and well rounded with a lot of tropical fruits, berries and grapes topped with vanilla and oak. The finish is medium to long with a sweet stickiness followed by fruit, cocoa and caramel."
Old Jamaican Rum (Aficionados) NYE
Top review from Jakob:
"Comparatively bitter New Yarmouth 1994, which shows the typical sweetness DNA, but in addition already shows clear aging characteristics. The barrel has worked and, in addition to the obligatory vanilla, toffee and coconut notes, also bitter wood influences and tart leather notes flow in. However, all this remains within absolutely tolerable limits; in fact, I don't dislike these rough edges, the quaffable sweetness gets a clear counterpoint. Beautiful selection."
Trinidad Rum HTR
Top review from cigares :
"A very successful bottling from Swiss Guildive. A classic 1998 with Caroni machine shop markers but counterbalanced by fruit aromas and cooked pineapple in particular. An alcoholic nose at first, but the pineapple and the dirty side are there immediately afterwards. A little smokiness on the palate, still with fruit and tire. A very long, velvety, elegant finish with chocolate. Still available from Guildive at a fair price for a Caroni of this class... a little below the 1996 Caroni all the same. Much better than the Caroni Adelphi in direct comparison."
HTR
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This is yet another release of the 1997 Caroni and it has just gotten better with even more aging. A nice Trinidad and Tobago blend that shines beside the other 1997 releases. You may want to add a drop or two of water if you think it bites too much or you just leave it to rest for 15-30 minutes. A wonderful nose transferring into a full bodied complex rum with a long warm finish. "
Bellamy‘s Reserve
Top review from DomM:
"Comparably lighter and more approachable profile. More heavy on roasted and fruity notes. Maintains a little more dirt compared to other early 1998 Caronis, however. Nice complexity and evolution on the palate keeps it interesting."
Opthimus 25 Años
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Retasting and leaving the original note 😊 This is a really good rum and also one for beginners because the proof is lower than normal. Easy to drink and enjoy with friends that may not like the more biting rums. The nose is sweet with the barrel to it and then some caramel. The palate is heavily influenced by the molasses and it almost ruins the taste for me. Fruity and the barrel is clearly there. The finish is sweet and medium long with a touch of fruits and oak."
S.B.S Guyana
Top review from DomM:
"Nose is reminiscent of other young PMs with wood and some continental fruits. Starts off with intense burnt notes. Some herbs with anis. A hint of chocolate appears over time.On the palate I get some acidity which I attribute to the high proof. However, the taste is surprisingly sweet with toffee and raisins which show up unexpectedly. Don’t take this wrong, this is very powerful and demanding stuff, far off from crowd pleasing sweetness of course.While this is the first AW I had in the glas I’m somewhat intrigued by the profile. Happy to explore some more bottlings. On the first go, SBS and the Nectar feel pretty similar. The latter maybe a little less sweet with more chocolate rather than toffee. Alcohol noticeable in both bottlings."
25 Years - Reserva Imperial
Top review from Artur Schönhütte:
"This is one of those central american Rums that at least try to distinguish themself with some sort of flavor. This on rather manages itself good to create this really distinct dryness in character and comes along with dry wood and coffee aroma. I can understand why."
S.B.S Fiji
Top review from Dr.Django:
"Fijis sind in Kennerkreisen schon seit jahren beliebt und begehrt. Meine Erfahrung zeigt trotzdem, dass man auch zuweilen die Katze im Sack am Gaumen finden kann, völlig unabhängig von den Eckdaten. So ist jeder Fiji für mich spannend. Heute ein Quertasting. 1. sbs 2009 11yo: langweilig. bisschen was von dreckigen fiji noten, zu gleichen teilen aber auch vanille und süssholz. 77 Pkt. (2. Verkostung: -4 Pkt) 2. Famillie Ricci 22yo: Lecker, sehr ausgewogen, Alkohol gut integriert, am Gaumen etwas pfeffrig, adstringierend und süss zugleich. Der Abgang ist kurz. Lecker 83 Pkt. 3. Swell de Spirits 9yo: Sehr geschmeidig ist der Antritt, das ändert sich sofort! xD eine schnell weggerauchte Zigarre wandelt sich natürlich aber unverzüglich in Rauch und Adche. Während dieser Veränderung liegt der Rum sehr adstringierend und mundfüllend am Gaumen, geil! Hier passier sehr viel(auch dreckige Noten) in ganz kurzer Zeit und am Ende bleibt Asche. Geschmeidig und wild und rauchig zugleich. Das einzige Manko ist der schlecht eingebundene Alkohol, der einen unangenehmen langen Abgang beschert. Immerhin haben wir hier aber auch 66% abv. Meine Erwartungen sind diesbezüglich vllt. einfach zu hoch. Interessant und ich würde sehr gerne wissen, wie der der einigen Monaten oder auch Jahren in der Fladchr schmeckt. 85-88 Pkt. 4. The whisky jury fiji 2012: tja, den hätte ich vor dem swell probieren müssen. mein mund ist noch voll swell fiji xD 10 Minuten Pause. Viel gefälliger, erinnert an die eleganz eines Neisson im Antritt und dann schlägt er wieder zu , wie ein Fiji. Dreckige Aromen mit Vanille garniert. lecker, komplex aber auch ziemlich scharf. der abgang ist angenehm trocken, junges Gras und Vanille, etwas Gewürz. Lecker. Habe das Gefühl, dass mein Gaumen noch vom krassen Swell inspiriert ist =D 85 Pkt. Chapeau an den Swell, der lässt mich nicht in Ruhe. Macht mich sehr neugierig. Diese Beziehung könnte ziemlich "Toxic" werden, sofern sie mir eine Chance gibt."
Trinidad Rum
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This was a very surprising rum to give a go. Very fruity from nose to finish and also with a wooden touch all the way. What I like a both this particular rum is the way it changes from nose to palate and then again to the finish. It does so and still maintains a very high level of integrity. The smoky wood flavours on the palate and finish really puts this one up there with the top shelf ones. Sad that Ten Cane is history because they could really make unique flavours."
The Royal Cane Cask Company Guadeloupe
Top review from crazyforgoodbooze:
"Guadeloupe 1998 Bellevue I had now already some but none like this: reminds me but actually of the old Courcelles from 1972 by this blatant strawberry jam and bitter orange jam note, which is rounded off by some wood, leather, vanilla, ginger and minimal orange flower water and menthol / mint and slightly bitter black tea. Very awesome and very elegant and especially unusual for this vintage! I really like it and better and better the more I drink it...."
Carta Fuego Superior Spiced Rum
Top review from Timo Groeger:
"Kein besonders guter Bacardi. Hat für mich eine ziemlich neutrale Nase, überwiegend alkoholisch. Nach einiger Zeit wird diese dann süsser, Zimt, Vanille, Honig aber auch Ingwer. Am Gaumen dann Richtung spiced, aber auch noch sehr süss."
Rumclub Private Selection Ed. 27 EMB
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"This was my contribution to the tasting and once we cracked open the bottle the flavours started spreading. Fruity with roasted wood and very good ABV integration. I really like the floral note and warm/spicy touch to the palate. Price to quality is very good in my mind."
15 Years - Reserva Superior
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Retasting this one today and it lost some points.,but that's what happens when it's a while back you tried it the first time 😊 Though sugar was added to this one it's a wonderful rum because they did not add a lot of sugar so the balance is perfect. Oak and spices are there from nose to finish and a bit of fruit as well. Price to quality is very good."
WR 10 (Kirsch Whisky)
Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"Can you make oil from berries? At any rate, this is the taste of Kirsch's Mhoba, finely balanced with a somehow high-quality solvent. Special, different from the typical Mhoba flavor range, but just as good. Update 2024-03-03: Have the rum in the glass again today while bottling for a split and simply have to rate it highly, because the alcohol is basically imperceptible on the nose and is entirely in the service of flavor transport on the palate. How can a rum that has been aged for less than five years be so good! Great art."
Réunion Rum (Bottled for Kirsch)
Top review from Mirco:
"I was skeptical about this finish beforehand. Unfortunately, the bottling doesn't really convince me either. As a Savanna fan, I don't really see any parallels to the base here. It is a traditional rum, I exclude HERR/Grand Arome. Overall, the rum is too unbalanced for me with lots of wood and roasted aromas."
Trinidad Oloroso Sherry Finish 2017
Top review from X-Savior:
"On The Rocks: On the nose you get a balanced mixture of fruit, floral, spice and oak. Taste reveals a very strong spice, alcoholic and sherry presence. The finish is long with the sherry sweetened slowly fading away with a bit of a buttery feel in the mouth. There is a slight delayed burn in the back of your throat. This is a very interesting rum and presents like a much more expensive rum. It is a nice sipper that can be enjoyed on the rocks. Mixed Pepsi Zero: On the nose old sherry cask. Taste is moderately sweet with sherry notes shining through. Finish is short but nice, but not vanishing instantly. This could be enjoyed nicely either mixed or on the rocks."
970 Cask Strength Edition (Madeira Brandy Cask)
Top review from Stefan Persson:
"Overall a quite interesting Agricole with lots of burnt rubber in aromas and flavors that’s very different from the Caribbean Agricole’s. This rum, a 970 Madeira Brandy Cask, is produced by Engenhos do Norte in Madeira. It’s a 7yo Brut de Fut distilled in 2016 produced in a total of 3652 numbered bottles."

Top review from Timo Groeger:
"Hat mich irgendwie enttäuscht dieser Rum. Hat eine würzige Note in Nase und Kaumen, hinzu kommt noch, dass er leicht süss ist. Schokolade, Karamell, Vanille und Kaffe sind herauszuschmecken. Hatte mehr erwartet von einem Jubiläumsrum."

Top review from Galli33:
"I found this rum very unspectacular, unbalanced rum. It has some nice notes of wood and dried fruits. On the palate you can easily notice the brandy barrel. The alcohol isn’t integrated well. The finish is quite short and overwhelmed by barrel notes."

La Maison du Rhum #4
Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"Before you give this rum a go, make sure you rest it for a while because that releases more flavours. The nose has very light oak to it. Fruit, vanilla is wonderfully balanced with eucalyptus, licorice and light herbal notes. The finish is medium long with fruits, licorice and vanilla. In the back there is a faint oak note."

"I like this rum a little better than a white Bacardi or Havana 3y, but of course it's nothing to enjoy neat. The smell is quite solid. Drinkable, yes, but always with an unpleasant alcoholic sharpness and very thin. There's not much more to say."

Palate Oily, sweet, light wood, caramel, dried fruit, light orange, faint chocolate, port, vanilla. Finish Short to medium, sweet, oily, light wood, orange, light caramel, port, light chocolate.

Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"Yes, the New Grove DNA is already clearly recognizable on the nose. The alcohol is also well integrated. But overall, the rum is a little too tart and almost boring for me. Is this due to the Moscatel finish? Nevertheless, it's still a good rum, even if it's not at the top of the New Grove league."

Top review from cigares :
"Un nez un peu volatil, estherisé, boisé et fruité. Une bouche un peu fermée, iodée avec quelque chose de maritime, pas très équilibrée. Une finale splendide sur l’orange. La meilleure partie de de rhum. Le verre vide est un peu déçevant avec un léger vinaigré. Un beau rhum malgré tout."

Top review from zabo:
"And another continental '98 Caroni. Nice piece, contains the typical notes known from this non-tropical vintage. Personally, far too one-dimensional and meaningless for me. Somehow something is missing here. In short, when you swallow it, you can count down from 10 and then the experience is already over. There are better wines from this vintage."

Top review from TheRhumhoe:
"Un jeune rhum qui tente de tirer le potentiel du fameux rhum blanc monovariétal en vieillissement. Le nez montre une fraîcheur végétale et florale, de la canne à sucre, quelques épices et tire sur le jeune bois et un côté un peu sirupeux. Ce côté doux se retrouve en bouche, avec des notes de fruits secs et végétales. La finale se veut courte et orientée sur les mêmes arômes. Un rhum frais et sympathique qui fonctionnerait bien lors de soirées estivales."

Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"This Caroni is right up my street. Wonderfully balanced, fruit and dirt in equal measure. Probably the best '97 continental-matured Caroni I've had in a glass. Now, if it were a little deeper, more powerful on the dark side of power, it would be phenomenal. As it is, it's "just" great. Nevertheless, I "need" a whole bottle of it. Because I don't think a better continental 97 will be bottled again. Many thanks, DrDjango, for the fine sample!"

Top review from cigares :
"A slightly clashed nose, a little alcohol, Port and sweetness. Spices and vanilla. Very spicy on the palate, still with Port. Correct length. A good rum, even if it lacks depth and watts. Wood, smoke and Port remain in the empty glass."

Top review from Kevin Sorensen 🇩🇰:
"#4792 21.07.2024 Got a set of unaged samples from a friend and had some time to enjoy them during the day. Nose Fresh, intense, vegetal, light citrus, sugarcane, light olive. Palate Round, balanced, light earthy, sugarcane, medium spicy, light olive, sake, citrus. Finish Medium long, fresh, citrus, vegetal. The empty glass has stronger sake like flavours as well as a touch of flowers."

Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"Boah, was für ein Muskelprotz mit Ausdauer! Ob das am sehr seltenen Chestnut Cask (insgesamt nur 6 Rums hier gelistet) liegt? Also dieser Rum ist definitiv nichts für schwache Gemüter, er beißt kräftig zu, fast zu kräftig, der Alkohol könnte etwas besser integriert sein. Ich schmecke schwere dunkelrote Früchte, auch etwas typische Minze hintenraus. Überhaupt, der Abgaaaaang! Ich glaube, ich hatte noch nie einen Rum mit so einem langen und sich noch intensivierenden Abgang im Glas. Ein Rum-Schraubstock, der sich immer weiter schließt, das ist das Bild, was mir in den Kopf kommt. Tolle New-Grove-Bombe des Jahrgangs 2009, der mich noch nie enttäuscht hat!"

Top review from Gunnar Böhme "Bauerngaumen" 🤓:
"It's getting better and better! If the El Salvador from Royal Cane has just cut a fine figure, the Fiji goes one better! Screw the fact that it has nothing of a Fiji, it's nice and strong and just tastes good. (Although I have to admit that, unlike the El Salvador, it would be better suited to a winter evening)."

Top review from Christian Rudt:
"Had this bottle on the shelf for a long time and someone wanted a sample so I opened it. Lots of herbs, slight bitterness. I like the apple notes and the slightly chocolaty finish. Update 5.5.24: Still a good drinkable rum, alcohol could be a bit better integrated at this strength. Recommended if you want to escape from the eternal Jamaica Guyana Trinidad pendulum to other flavor regions"
